1950 Map of Bendeleben B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Bendeleben Mountains dominate the southern portion of this 1950s aerial survey, revealing a high-altitude landscape defined by steep drainage networks and glacial carving. This region of the Seward Peninsula is shaped by the winding path of the Koyuk River, which flows through the center of the sheet and is marked by significant rapids. Tributaries such as Knowles Creek, French Creek, and Spruce Cr feed into the river system from the north, cutting through the high country. The map reflects the early application of photogrammetric methods by the Army Map Service, providing a precision record of the area’s hydrology and relief before modern development or environmental shifts. This specific quadrangle captures a period when the interior remained largely focused on its natural watercourses and the imposing barrier of the southern peaks.
